Perhaps I'm being naiive but is the traffic through avebury really causing that much of a problem to the site? Ok so it's hair raising crossing the road sometimes. And it would be nicer to be able to sit there without hearing the thundering traffic.
But do you want to return Avebury to some mythical no-road state? It has obviously always been a hub of the area. Roads must have crossed it for millennia. Is there something of the 'preservation' 'conservation' issue? - what time period do you want to return it to? Shall we get rid of the houses as well (clearly not, though that's what Keiller did - as well as removing lots of trees).
